Symptoms

Facial nerve disorders can cause weakness, paralysis and involuntary movement or twitching. These symptoms can be challenging to live with, affecting appearance, and impacting the ability to close the eyes, smile and speak.

Treatment

After diagnosis, the team employs a range of treatment options, including newly developed therapies not yet available in other hospitals. To address facial nerve conditions, our team regularly makes use of:

Facial nerve compression surgery

Neuromuscular retraining

BOTOX injection

Static facial reanimation surgery (alleviates the symptoms of facial paralysis but does not involve nerve or muscle transfer)
